Dropping courses

If i have 4 courses and 2 on waiting list... Do I have 4 or 6 courses? If I drop the wait list course now, do I get penalty?

    If you're enrolled in 4 and are on the waitlist for 2, then you potentially have 6. If you drop a waitlist course, then as far as I know there's no penalty.

    Don't you not even deal with penalities until the semester starts?

    But I think as toasted says, its only those you are enrolled in, not waitlisted for.

    I remember dropping courses 2 week before semester starts and the amount due never changed. I think penalties only apply after semester starts.

    i find that they're pretty inconsistent with charging though, twice they've missed dinging me for dropping courses.
